No, this won't work very well either. There are some cases(lag, etc) where a
player can disconnect and the MUD not recognize it. So when the person tries
to log back in, they are technically connected and still playing, so they are
blocked from getting back in, and have no choice but to wait until they are
kicked off for idling. Very annoying, and deadly if the player was fighting or
moving grouped in a dangerous zone.
